Your understanding of the universe didn't include these people?
Siddhārtha Gautama probably existed. Mohammed probably existed.
You may choose to believe that their teachings as they've been handed down and exist in their present form can't be interpreted as literal truth... that's fine (in fact can't blame you for coming to that conclusion at all). But your universe doesn't include some historical figures?
Sorry George W. Bush since I disagree with some of what you said, my universe doesn't include you. The truthiness will set you free.
